Is this wallpaper? Someone covering up a dirty book collection? Nope. It’s a flipping fantastic showcase of the 41 colourways available in the Passepartout luxury upholstery cotton collection by Italian textile company Dedar. Don’t get me wrong, there is nothing I enjoy more than a book of swatches but unless you have one in your hands, it is often hard to truly “see” the colour via computer monitor (especially in textiles). This is such a clever and inspiring way to feature colour options beyond the regular computerized colour chip. Don’t you find yourself wondering what hue you would pick for that chair? Kudos Dedar. You are making me want to upholster things AND wrap all my books in luxury cotton…
